The Senate also passed to be enacted House No. 4504, an act making the Nantucket County charter gender neutral, sending that measure to the Governor. All actions were by unanimous voice vote, Joint Rule 12 was suspended to allow the Primera bill to be considered forthwith, and the chamber adjourned to meet again Monday, March 30, at 11 a.m.
